"Don with the Wind": Donald Rumsfeld finally left with one last annoying good-bye. During an interview with Sean Hannity, he said that he has "skimmed" the new Iraq Study Group Report. Wow. As if that wasn't infuriating enough, all of Rummy's "golly"s and "gee"s have really been pissing off Jon... enough to call for a meeting at Camera Three. Jon actually seemed genuinely angry, especially when he started shouting. It was... pretty unsettling for, like, two seconds. Rummy also said that Iraq isn't all that bad at the moment because things look okay from the air.

Baghdad Correspondent Aasif Mandvi briefly stopped by to explain just how great everything is in Iraq... where parts of the land are not on fire.

"Barack Star": Barack Obama is the congressional it-boy at the moment. That Jon's take on Obama's Monday Night Football "dada-da-daaah!" was beautiful. Senior Political Correspondent Samantha Bee acted like every other politic-savvy woman in America by obnoxiously swooning over Obama. OMG HE IS SO DREAMY.

The night's guest was Fareed Zakaria, editor of Newsweek International. Zakaria has always been a great guest, and this interview was no exception. He's definitely a Daily Show favorite. There was plenty of discussion about whether or not we're totally fucked in Iraq. From the looks of it, yeah. Yeah, we are.

Jon/Stephen: None. Moment of Zen: Donald Rumsfeld is deaf... but only when there's a question he doesn't want to answer.

Aasif. Mandvi. Barack. Obama. Fareed. Zakaria. This post was weird to spell-check.
